    Hey Max,

    the first two videos were great! A little challenge with three though, nothing there and the report is the marketing report from video 1? Time to wake that webmaster up!!

  2. Jean says:

    Ditto – The first two were dynamite! Nothing comes up for #3.

    I love your sincere and staightforward style. The idea of going deep with fewer people has great appeal. In the evaluations of my last workshop, several people wished we had had more time for networking and getting to know each other. My initial (defensive)thought was, “This wasn’t a networking event!” However, your 30%-70% statistic puts it in perspective. It’s not what I do but what they experience that makes the event memorable – even for a 2 hour educational workshop. That’s GOLD and I intend to apply it immediately! Thank you!

  3. Max Simon says:

    We’re LIVE NOW Jack and Jean. Thanks for paying such close attention to this….and enjoy video #3!!!

    Much love,

      Hi Max,

      I just finished the third video and Man oh Man. In this video I saw why i was failing filling my Tele-Seminars and why I believe this model will not only work with the live events I want to do but with the Tele-Seminars and the Webinars I will do in the future too. I love the content, it was not only helpful but real examples that I can walk away and feel like I can do this. I am unstoppable with your information. I am ready to begin and I will use this immediately for the Tele-Seminars that I am doing just next week. I have about seven days exactly to market it and use your scholarship program. Also, I am a bit overwhelmed with coming up with a compelling name and headline but I am sure it will come. I cant wait to apply to live events. This is SO great. Thank you for literally saving my life and my business!!!! I will be back after my upcoming events with great success stories… Are you ready to hear them? I bet you are. Thanks again.

      Someone said in the comments about being bombarded with sales pitch Tele-seminars stating that they are free and content driven but the whole time they are saying buy this program or that program. They give you a glimpse of hope but then they slam door in your face and really don’t deliver what they said. YOU on the other hand have made me a believer in You and your desire to help people. So again thank you!

  4. Hey!

    This was such a cool video. I learned so much that I just want to call in sick to work and build my live event right now!!! Thanks, Max and company!

  5. Yve says:

    Wow, Max WOW! The information on this video is priceless. You are a clear example of how your system works. This is the template you describe in action, and it’s fascinating and delightful to see… Wonderful!

  6. Linda says:

    Great training and video.

  7. Max Simon says:

    Hi Sean, Yve, and Linda!!

    So glad you’re feeling the value. Now jump on the early bird list and let’s play together for the next round!

    Much love,

    Max

  8. Jeanene says:

    THANK you for teaching me
    free as I have no money;;; You teaching and how to save
    For this time of just beginning…
    Love,
    Jeanene

  9. Carolyn Gray says:

    Max, great stuff. There are so many ideas swirling around in my head after viewing this video that I may not be able to go to sleep!

    I love your approach and how you explain everything on a level that is so easy to understand.

    Your giving has truly blessed me. In addition to learning how to have a sold out seminar, I have learned that sharing with others is powerful.

    Thank you for your generous spirit.

  10. Max,
    I get bombarded with all kinds of free training offers. I have to tell you, I almost deleted the message before viewing assuming it was just another sales pitch. So many free training teleseminars, audios, videos are just that with very little content.

    I’m one who believes heavily in divine appointment. I just returned from attending a musical and it’s 1:35am. Needless to say you definitely caught my attention, held my interest, and offered so much value I can’t believe it was free. Thank you for sharing your blessing, you have me rethinking live events. I’ve done some in the past but thought I had to have a large audience to consider it a success. Thanks again for letting me know that a smaller and targeted audience is the way to go. Excellent, excellent information!!!!

  11. thandiwe chappot says:

    oooh là là, super!! I took copious notes. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

  12. Hi Max,

    I’m enjoying your pre-launch very much and I am definitely one of those in your ‘right fit’ mode. I speak, write, and create products, but putting together a seminar has never been my forte’. Your vids have helped me see it is possible and I’m looking for one of your scholarship opportunities so pull it out for me man. :-)

    Thank you for what you have taught thus far and although I’d expect the 4th vid to be more promo than anything I’m still looking forward to it. Great job.

    Max, Max, Max,

    Brother let me start with….WOW….NICE!!!

    I am so glad that I can across your email….I was sitting here and realize that I don’t remember how I got connected to this video but the universe is an amazing force. (Or As it has been shared with me…a divine appointment). As a Midwesterner (Chi-town), a lot the of support you get can lose its authenticity because of a scarcity mindset. Thank you again for giving us some salmon (healthier than steak ;) ) and potatoes as we begin to “trust” you.

    With a deep breath….I AM…Grateful…LGLG….And so it is!!!!

    Enjoy this day…RJ (of Chicago)

  14. Murray says:

    Max,

    We really enjoyed video 3. One question: How do you recommend getting the word out about an event if you don’t have a big list?

  15. Max Simon says:

    Hi Murray!

    thanks for the great question. This answer requires a more detailed explanation, but here’s what I can share as a first step.

    The most important part of filling up your event is making sure that it’s crystal clear who your event is for, why this specific person will achieve tremendous value, and why you are the perfect person to lead them in getting these results. Once you have these ingredients clearly mapped out, it’s fairly easy to get the word out because it will have such a compelling energy and tone.

    So…..watch the next video and I’ll share with you how I can quickly help you help you get crystal clear clarity on all of these things using my: “Quick-Start Event Creation System”.

    Much love, Max

  16. O'Broin says:

    Max,

    Great videos – I really enjoyed them. What are the subtle differences you’ve noticed in Europe? I live in Italy (my tribe there hardly uses the internet) and would love to have a sold out seminar for people suffering from migraines.

    I think you should have an overseas ‘scholarship’ programme so that I can attend… and I’ll tout it with my friends here, deal?

    Much love

  17. Gail Lloyd says:

    Your approach to your seminars (and life in general)
    is very similar to my own world views.

    I am thinking about how my initial video (i.e. bringing
    the viewer symbolically into a secret sanctuary where
    one focuses on each person’s own sacred journey within)
    thematically matches your “narrow and deep” strategy
    towards holding seminars.

    In fact, it would be a great model for an introductory
    video on your home page, actually taking the viewer
    through one of your retreats, perhaps introducing
    them to particular attendees along the way and
    holding brief interviews. I see that you’ve done
    something similar to this, but it might be
    amusing to tie it into a single min-documentary
    were you are moving through the space, panning
    out to views, etc…

    Your information comes across with the wisdom
    born of a lot experience and willingness to
    both experiment, and give careful thought
    to what the times are crying out for and
    what works.

    I can see how it would be interesting to
    explore what each member would have to offer,
    as if one were assembling a team of “super
    heroes” with unique world views and insights,
    but also underlying this would be the effort
    of each individual to reveal their own
    individual “super hero”.

    The way you describe how to do this
    does instill in me a desire to create
    events like this, and bring my own
    utterly unique gifts and experiences
    to them.

  18. Marta C says:

    thank you Max, you kept my attention and gave us great information.

  19. Val says:

    Like your upbeat presentation. What you are saying makes a lot of sense. Looking forward to listening to the next video. Thanks.

  20. Michael Clemison says:

    Hey MAX,

    Thank you so much for such an AWESOME video series. I was so happy yo find out that there are places here in Colorado and close by Santa Fe, NM where we can hold “Living Heart Centered” Magical Transformational Weekend for the Enlightened Professional. I know that once all the factors are in place, we will sell this out in record time. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you…

    LOVE in Abundance,

  21. Max,
    Thank you, thank you, thank you. I appreciate your authenticity and gifts. I am grateful to have connected to this video series and I thank you for all that you are offering the world.

    Be Incredible,

  22. Ariella says:

    PERFECT TIMING!

    Thank you for these strategies (based on a loving format). I really believe that the many people you empower to create Sold Out Seminars will make HUGE differences in the world- it’s like you’re propelling world peace and empowerment – on small and large scales – forward, at a faster rate. Thank you for making this so accessible!

    I will be creatively adjusting what you say for my vocal music workshops.

    BlesSings,
    Ariella

  23. Max, I am loving all the videos, I find great value and information in all of them. You are getting better and better on camera, which gives me hope that I will get better on camera as I progress forward. I really feel that you are talking just to me and the connection is almost as good as if you were actually in the room, I sincerely want to learn and manage that skill. I am really looking forward to my next seminar series and apply all that I am learning from you.

    To your good health,
    Angela

  24. Robert says:

    Thanks Max. I’m digging the videos. You have a wonderful presentation style. I now know why my friend Aaron raves about you.

    In Gratitude,

    Robert

  25. Tilla Brook says:

    Max

    Thank you, thank you. I’ve been trawling the internet for tips and ideas for creating multiple income streams and know that I want to build coaching programmes both face to face and by telephone. And, as an Englishwoman so much of what I find is TOO LOUD. It jars with the way we do stuff round here. It screams “AMERICAN” all over the place. It speaks of money before heart and authenticity.

    So, thank you for coming from heart, for your passion, your commitment to helping others and your simple delivery.White shirts rock.

    I’ll be using this to create events for nurses in the UK to reignite their passion for nursing and prioritise their self-care so they can give their patients the very best of themselves without burnout.

    Warmly

    Tilla Brook

  26. Jenene says:

    Max, you are off-the-charts amazing! I love what you are doing with the program. You are all heart and it shows. Thank you for your generosity and love. I can’t wait to attend your event! xoxoxo J

  27. Max,

    All three videos are a home run. My next event is May 12th and I’m so psyched and relieved to know that I can deliver
    to my tribe (divorced parents) my practical wisdom of creating utter harmony in their relationships with their exe’s, with deeper sincerity and confidence. Amazing stuff!

    Clarity is key,
    Victoria

  28. Ann says:

    HI Max, thank you so much for such detailed information and for it being so ‘non hard sell’. I am surprise at there being so few questions on your scholarship offer. Is there a reason for this? Ann

  29. Max Simon says:

    Hi Ann….

    Thanks for your kind words. This process has been so much fun!!!

    I was actually a little surprised by the lack of questions about it too….haha. Maybe it was clear enough that people got it….do you think that’s a possibility?

    Much love,

    Max

  30. Debra says:

    Hi Max – Haven’t seen the third video yet but have really enjoyed the first two – and the whole thing showed up within minutes of my thought that I’d like to get back into the seminar business! LOL!

    Just one thing – the music on your videos is so loud, and on this 2nd one, in the beginning it’s so strident and unpleasant, it was really difficult to hear you over the noise. (Hey, you know about NLP, right? LOL!) Thought you might like to know…

    Thanks, can’t wait to learn more from you!

  31. Ann says:

    HI max, just saw the join the tribe video. One question pops up for me. If you’re having 200 people on the programme, how can each person get the individual assistance they may need in terms of their message, their tribe, etc. etc.? My experience of other types of programmes like yours on different topics, is that with all the information and the depth of the material it’s challenging to keep up and to get into enough detail with my own personal details on what I am about etc. In effect what happens is that it’s just another programme, hours upon hours spent watching great videos yet no individual help with stuff, so I’m almost back where I started, with more information and knowledge, yet making no real progress other than to absorb how it’s done. I’d appreciate your comments please, Regards, Ann

  32. Ann says:

    Hi Max, I meant the number of questions you posted to possible participants on the scholarship offer sheet (the one you included as a pdf. Thanks, Ann

  33. ella says:

    Thank you for teaching this.

  34. Alicia Forest says:

    Just watched Video 4 – my intuition is telling me this is right for me. However, I can’t attend either live event due to previous commitments. Will the June one be recorded and will paid members have access to those recordings? If yes, I’m ready with credit card in hand.

    Thanks!
    Alicia

  35. Marisa says:

    Video 3 was my favorite, packed with great information. I feel so inspired. Thanks for your priceless gift.
    Marisa

  36. Lee says:

    Wonderful Videos Max! Appreciate your straighforward ways of teaching and all the insight! Thanks to Karen for guiding me here…. Looking forward to hardcopy videos when they become available to be shared throughout our growing company.
    Lee

  37. Max Simon says:

    Hi Ann,

    Here’s the scoop.

    You will get a series of videos that contain experiential exercises to help you gain clarity and focus. Then, we will have a series of live calls where you can get personalized guidance and coaching. Then, you will get to attend a live event where you will get EVEN MORE guidance and support.

    So to answer your question, you will get a tremendous level of personal attention, support, and care. Now let me be clear that this doesn’t include any one-on-one time with me, because I am not doing any private coaching at this time. Yet I think you’ll find that the way I teach is VERY EASY to understand and apply, and the amount of stuff you get to keep you moving forward is profound.

    Looking forward to having you in the program Ann….and you will be AWESOME!

    Much love,

    Max

  38. Max Simon says:

    Hi Alicia,

    YES, the live event will be filmed and given out to those who couldn’t attend, so you’re all good.

    And please make sure you’re on the early-bird list….because the demand for this is pretty wild and I really want you to get a spot.

    Much love,

    Max

  39. Max Simon says:

    Lee,

    Yes, all of the videos and modules will be included in the coaching program….and I look forward to getting them to you too!!

    Much love,

    Max

  40. Max Simon says:

    So cool Jenene….I’m really looking forward to having you in the program and seeing you at the event really soon!!! Much love, Max

  41. Angelika says:

    I tried to sign up after watching the “join the tribe” video, but the “join” button did not work. Is the 200 inner circle already filled?
    Please advise.

    Thank you and blessings,
    Angelika

  42. Silke says:

    Hi Max,
    thanks for excellent content and the entertaining, heartfelt delivery of it – as always, you walk your talk and your passion for live events really comes through!

    I do have a few question about the scholarship idea, which I really like.
    Do you do different levels of scholarships or just one kind of full scholarship?

    Do you limit the number of scholarships to a certain percentage and communicate that as well.

    And do you promote the scholarships from the start or as a separate promotion while the original promotion for the event is ongoing?

    Thanks a lot for the gift – the questions in the free download are super helpful!

    Much love from Chocolate-land,
    Silke

  43. Max Simon says:

    haha….hi Angelika….I love your enthusiasm. The program goes live at 12 pm PACIFIC today, and YES, we expect to fill up very quickly. So tune in right at that time and you will be good to go.

    Really looking forward to seeing you in the tribe….

    Much love,

    Max

  44. Max Simon says:

    Hi Silke!!

    I’ve found that offering options makes things confusing, so we typically stick to one. Now that said, we usually only offer a few scholarships (like 10-15) and once those are given away, we sometimes offer a SECOND tier of partial scholarships for a higher amount.

    We limit the amount of scholarships based upon what feels right. We’ve given out 5 and we’ve given out 25. Really just depends on the event and what’s happening for us at the moment.

    I don’t promote scholarships right from the start. I launch a few different campaigns, like the ones I’ll be teaching in this program (that you have access to as an Enlightened Entrepreneur Club Member, BTW) and build up some momentum and energy first. Then we release the scholarship campaigns later on down the line.

    Cool….great questions as always Silke! You rock!!!

    Much love,

    Max

    Excellently helpful: as Ozearth, I want to run a natural building & permaculture school in Tasmania. This is going to help me!

  46. karen says:

    where’s the info on your affiliate program for this? I have a big mailing list …

  47. Max Simon says:

    haha….I love how straight forward you are Karen.

    Please send an email to info@getselfcentered.com and we can explore a fit with you and your tribe.

    And THANK YOU for your energy and enthusiasm….

    Much love,

    Max

  48. Silke says:

    Cool. Thanks Max. Clear answers! We are ready to go then with our promotion.
    And by the way I didn’t remember that being an EEC member we have access to the sold out seminar program – NOW I am really excited!!!!!
    Talk soon, Silke

  49. when the student is ready… max shows up. thank you for being so prompt, max. i am SO happy i found you (thanks to tad in canada) and i am excited to get started on the marketing part of my new venture now.

    thank you for your wonderful inspiration and these wonderful gifts. you’ve filled in some blanks i needed filled. and i’m sure you will fill in more.

    i’ll literally take some of these suggestions to the bank and ask for help to start my work, teaching people who imagine they need to self-medicate, to self-heal and to be healers. it’s so good to know that i can stipulate the quality of participants i want in my events. you are a genius. you are wise to have positioned yourself so well at such an early age. deepak… nice…

    thank you again! i look forward to getting to know you better.

    love, auntie patricia

  50. cheryl says:

    Hi Max!

    It’s interesting on all the LAUNCHES I say PASS to. However, I didn’t check you out until video 4 (yep, I didn’t look at ANYTHING until I saw your offer video). Actually I wasn’t even HALF through it when I KNEW this was for me. So…I got my spot in the training (yahoo!!!) and will see you at the second live event.

    Now I’m going back to watch ALL of the prelaunch videos.

    Thanks for putting this together. I’m looking forward to sprouting some great ideas, and taking advantage of creative brainstorming for 2 projects I’m currently developing.

    Be well,
    :o )

  51. Keith says:

    Max,
    Great stuff. I am excited to get started with live events. I have some experience speaking at live events but never put one on myself. I can’t wait to put this into action. Thanks for sharing this with everyone.

    Keith

  52. Tina Nies says:

    Thank you, Max! This was perfect timing for me as I haven’t done as much speaking lately as I’d like as I’ve been focusing on new business ventures. I can see how well this fits already with how I work and present our services – and now I can see even more how I can use these techniques as we enroll new businesses in our new organization.

  53. Ignacio Ruiz says:

    Thanks, Max

    The videos are great! lots of information and very practical is what I was really looking for. I watched the video a couple of times and then took some notes. I just wonder how much more info you must know that you didn’t get to say? but it was good enough for me.

    Ignacio -FL

  54. Thanks Max for the great videos with amazing info. I have spent close to $1M in courses, seminars, workshops, retreats and university education – and many times (except for university) felt like I was given a ton of inspiration and no frickin’ tools! You provide both. And your heart and soul are clearly present. I am so joyful to know you and to have the experience of traveling some of this life journey with you. You are truly a treasure chest of knowledge, teachability, inspiration and compassionate heart-centered mentoring.

    Much Love

  55. Rob says:

    Thanks Max. Some awesome stuff. So obvious when you present it the way you have. It’s not rocket science… just about thinkig different and keeping it simple!

  56. Great focused and well-structured presentation. Thank you Max! You’re right, the info you shared with us was both broad and deep. After 15+ years of producing festivals, conferences and events event I’m embarking on producing deep and narrow events for mySelf.

    Thank you for sharing so many clear insightful strategies in such a practical step by step manner. There’s always more to learn, to test, to explore and discover. I appreciate the motivation your videos generate. Thank you!

  57. So appreciative of you giving this out for free – I am so keen and busy planning my next seminar and this is perfectly timed to help it be a success..

    Blessings to you Max what an awesome job you are doing..

  58. Mathilde says:

    Thanks Max!
    I’m not going to wait to get started, I’m getting started NOW!

  59. Hale Brownlee says:

    Max,

    I know that right now is not the time for me to start holding live events, as I need to stay focused and finish my software product first. However, for some reason, despite being extremely busy, I still keep watching your videos. I heave learned a lot from them and wish to genuinely thank you for making them available. I feel like we share a passion for making the world a better place and the time will come when you will invite me to speak at one of your seminars.

  60. Nancy Oblea says:

    Hi Max Nancy, Just got though watching the third video it cut out in the middle but I do
    get what you are teaching. These past few weeks I have gotton volumes from the videos.
    And consider you a mentor. Thank You for being someone who has learned and passes his
    knowledge along.

    The Best to You
    Nancy

  61. Max, this is a great series. It validates the process of evolution that I have been going through as a presenter and also provies plenty of great new ideas for me to try. My focus has always ben “narrow nd deep” since the content for my courses is very rich and specific. Before watching yur videos I had a moment of insight, (or was it a “blindig flash of the obvious”?) that I would no longer worry about how large my group was going to be, would no longer book a hotel, and would simply and gratefully allow the Universe to bring the people who can benefit most from my teaching. Now I will add to that your techniques for becoming more and more specific in terms of who my tribe will be and how I will help them. Thank you so much!!

  62. Carla says:

    Hi Max,
    Excellent video series. It all makes so much sense. Not only do I feel more confident in creating and delivering my first event but I can do so with a more simplified and authentic approach. Looking forward to you call with Callan tomorrow night.

  63. Anthony says:

    Max,

    I am an estate planning attorney and am writing this as I watch your third video. As of now, I want to use the seminar to give real value, but I want it to be used to have some of the people that come decide to hire me as their estate attorney. Which of the four tracks would that fall into? Also, I don’t really think that they should be like me: I want them to be wealthier and their views or ideas do not need to be like mine, in my opinion. What do you say?

  64. Jep Laponnel says:

    Hello Max,

    One of the things that really keeps me away from coming to your event is your own strategy that on each seminar you try to sell a much more expensive event to your participants.

    I am NOT going to pay USD 997 go to to a “sales meeting”. I know that there will be a lot of value in the seminar – but anyway…..

    In the beginning of each of your videos you promise a lot of “fantastic” info, but it feels a bit thin in the end.

    Don´t misunderstand me – I really think you give out some great info – but you oversell it a bit. Maybe it is my Scandinvian skeptisism (I am from Denmark) and the business cultural differences.

    In the giving back video you try to give the blame on the price – but I am sure that others are having the same feeling as I am.

    So – sorry – no hugs for me this time.
